Sex Pistol's Johnny Rotten defends Trump against media's 'smear' campaign
fox news ^ | 3/27/2017

Posted on 03/27/2017 2:18:41 PM PDT by Hugin

Rotten, who holds American citizenship, agrees Trump shares the Sex Pistol's anti-establishment qualities.

"There's many, many problems with him as a human being but he’s not [racist] and there just might be a chance something good will come out of that situation because he terrifies politicians," Rotten shared. "This is joy to behold for me. Dare I say, [he could be] a possible friend."

The 61-year-old rocker also voiced his support for Brexit saying, "the working class [has spoken] and I'm one of them and I'm with them."

It’s weird that Piers Morgan, the stridently anti-2nd Amendment pro-Obama foreigner is a Trump supporter.

I can see liberal/leftist heads exploding from coast to coast. Great stuff.

“Out Of The Blue”
NEIL YOUNG

My my, hey hey
Rock and roll is here to stay
It’s better to burn out
Than to fade away
My my, hey hey.

Out of the blue
and into the black
They give you this,
but you pay for that
And once you’re gone,
you can never come back
When you’re out of the blue
and into the black.

The king is gone
but he’s not forgotten
This is the story
of a Johnny Rotten
It’s better to burn out
than it is to rust
The king is gone
but he’s not forgotten.

Hey hey, my my
Rock and roll can never die
There’s more to the picture
Than meets the eye.
Hey hey, my my.

Piers has always stated that he is the only Brit that Trump follows and not Nigel farage. Those 2 have known each other for many years.

Not at all - anything that terrifies the establishment is going to be celebrated by working people who've been silenced by political correctness and mainstream pundits and politicians for way too long.

It's long past time men returned to power positions. The feminization of American men has to stop now and the feminized, leftist cocoa drinkers need shunning and shaming

Saw the Sex pistols in 96 when I was a wild kid. Great show and JR was hilarious on stage. After 3 songs he says “Ok lemme catch my breath, I’m almost 50 you sh*ts!”

He is THE chief counter-culture guy.

And he likes Trump.

The Establishment wants to be The Culture AND ALSO the Counter-culture:

THAT IS IMPOSSIBLE.

The counter-culture is **US**.

Yeah, he is. He’s also pro-business. I also know Steve Jones from the Sex pistols. He has a show here in L.A. on KLOS.

Not exactly. Their song "Bodies" certainly deals with the horror of it, but I think what he really hates is the hypocrisy of pretending it's no big deal.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bodies_(Sex_Pistols_song)

"Yet in the BBC documentary series "Classic Albums" (2007) about The Sex Pistols' "Never Mind The Bollocks" album Lydon said: "That song was hated and loathed. It's not anti-abortion, it's not pro-abortion. It's: "Think about it. Don't be callous about a human being, but don't be limited about a thing as "morals" either. Because it's immoral to bring a kid in this world and not give a toss about it." "
